    Reddit is quite possibly the largest collection of idiots ever assembled in history. They genuinely think, despite having never read any books nor any education or training, that they can make statements about topics ranging from history, to science, and even to the arts.

    To take advantage of this for propaganda was masterfully done by the CIA, I must admit. You’ve got millions of people now convinced they have a strong grasp of geopolitics.

      I can’t think of any social media worse than Reddit. YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and 4chan combined pale in comparison to that website…

      The amount of smug braindead idiots, CIA bots, nazis, fascists, pedophiles, racists, morons, anti-LGBT, ‘‘people’’ who watch gore and people being killed irl, such disrespecting to women, love for incest and gore, bloodlust and wishing for nuking, genocide and killing people their government hates, hating on same group of countries 24/7 on almost every sub whenever they get the chance while bootlicking the biggest oppressors of human kind and their own exploiters who live of their suffering while they worship them as gods, memeing wars and tragedies, looking at real events and comparing it to movies and think that they know everything about anything is not seen on any other place on surface internet.

      There was a member in my local Worker’s Party chapter (RIP, Jorge Gurgel) who summed this up by saying “the Internet gave voice to the idiots.”

    • I mean every day at work I hear shit about how in 200 years men wont exist any more because our balls are getting too close to our anus (or something equally far out) and most people just nod and agree. We live in a time of snake oil and dogma.
